Sing for Science Just Won a Webby
Sing for Science has been awarded a Webby Award for Best Live Podcast Recording!
The honor recognizes our live taping with Kacey Musgraves and mycologist Paul Stamets, recorded at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville.
The conversation moves from mushrooms to consciousness to the hidden systems that shape how we live—an exchange that reflects what the series does at its best: bringing artists and scientists together in a setting where ideas can unfold in real time.
Stamets describes mycelium as “nature’s internet”—a vast, underground network connecting ecosystems. Musgraves brings that idea back to the human scale, reflecting on how learning reshapes our sense of connection. The result is less a traditional interview than a shared inquiry.
The Webby Awards, established in 1997, recognize excellence across the internet. For Sing for Science, the award affirms an approach that has guided the show from the beginning: pairing musicians and scientists not to simplify ideas, but to expand them.
Since its launch, the series has grown into a platform for conversations that move fluidly between art and research, often in front of live audiences in spaces like the Ryman Auditorium, the New Museum, and the Museum of Science in Boston.
We look forward to seeing you in your city in the very near future.
